My impression is that you think of camping in a similar fashion as does my wife. She tried tent camping many, many years ago (this is the place where I put in "bless her heart" or something like that) but never really got the "bug". And let's not get off on that whole "bug" thing Bobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03523653271715366168noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8128369950831173916.post-70722244683358210712011-09-20T20:29:36.055-04:002011-09-20T20:29:36.055-04:00Oh wow, I didn't know it was doing that.

However, your new viewer has thumbnails at the bottom of the popover for each image in that post.<br /><br James Vavrahttp://www.artistryinwood.infonoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8128369950831173916.post-42433360998148377512011-09-19T17:25:00.348-04:002011-09-19T17:25:00.348-04:00James, it's a feature on blogger where you can...James, it's a feature on blogger where you can add a caption to your photo.

I do end up using a power planer after this first step most of the time, but even my well sharpened power planer just eats curly woods alive, and I love to use those curlies, so I end up doing this a great deal. It's a great lesson in hand planing to get a board flat, square, AND parallel. <br /><br />I do find that metal planes, with their heft and Jim Burtonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01738576220641489764noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8128369950831173916.post-45532649219749291582011-09-11T20:50:21.103-04:002011-09-11T20:50:21.103-04:00How about an electric power planer for these situa...How about an electric power planer for these situations?

Or could you just count on the planer acting as a jointer in this case?
